well he is not her ex,but her legal husbandand she also became a cheater i
Ah, yes. The legalities of their marriage are a bit tricky. Technically, Meri and Woojoo are still husband and wife on paper, since she hasn’t submitted the divorce papers—at least not by the episode I last watched, if I’m remembering right. But emotionally and situationally, they were clearly “separated”. Given that, I don’t think what Meri did with the other ML Woojoo counts as cheating.

"We're often trapped by others' opinions, but we must understand one thing: when the torrent comes to you and you drown in it, it's not your fault." — Zhou Qing Tian, Meet Yourself (2023)
"Easy, not easy, and difficult, I guess there's a standard that's objectively acknowledged. However, everyone has a different starting point. For some, their starting points are actually the endpoints of other people. If they lack luxurious ingredients in their hotpot, they'll feel that it's rough. And, they do suffer for it. It's because everyone has different opinions when it comes to suffering. If so, how can we compare them on the same axis?
No matter what position you're in, someone else will always have it rougher than you. Someone else will always have it easier than you as well. Therefore, we can only compete with ourselves. We should use our current self as the reference point. We should compare our past, future, and ourselves from many points with our current self." — Xie Zhi Yao, Meet Yourself (2023)
Hehe, you think so? Just wanted to give props to the leads since their character portrayals were good, and they…
I usually prefer MDL ratings over other websites, but I’ve noticed they’re not always reliable lol.
And yes, I agree with you. I’ve come across a few series that leaned heavily on technique, which can sometimes be mistaken for adding actual substance to the story. Though I wouldn’t say I have expertise in aesthetics either. To be honest, all my reviews are based purely on personal preference 😆
While others might enjoy a series with beautiful cinematography even without solid writing or a coherent storyline, I personally find it as a huge imbalance in the overall experience. Anyway, it’s rare to find a drama that nails both technique and writing.
I’ve never teamed up with anyone to review a show. I mostly write reviews as a way to keep track of the ones I’ve watched (I have a goldish memory 🥲) and to practice my English and writing (since it’s not my first language). I’m not sure how co-reviewing works, but I’m curious!
And yup... I zoned out toward the end 😂 I usually watch dramas at night before bed to unwind haha!
I haven’t seen Yin Yang Master: Dream of Eternity. It’s not typically the genre I go for, but I’ve added it to my watchlist. I’ll get to it eventually. Thank you so much for the recommendation. I appreciate it!

I haven’t seen The Princess Royal yet, but I totally get what you mean about the time travel. It really doesn’t seem to add much to the story actually.
Anyway, I genuinely enjoyed your review - you made some solid points! And honestly, I agree - it’s just weak and poor writing in general. The fantasy aspect would've worked if the writing had held up, but by the end, I found myself zoning out.
It’s kind of wild that it has such a high rating, though. For a moment, I even wondered if there was something off about my taste lol
i’m sorry to say this but if this ends with the death of dong ju (most probabile ending) it will make zero sense.…
Totally agree. With all the physical trauma Dong Ju’s been through, he should’ve been dead ten times over. So I think the show kinda veers off from being realistic. That said, if he ends up really dying in the end, it makes all the fighting and everything they endured feel pointless.
Hehe, you think so? Just wanted to give props to the leads since their character portrayals were good, and they had pretty decent chemistry. The cinematography was okay, too. What rating would you have given it?
